John O'Shea Republic of Ireland Football Manager

[Tony Angelino]

The so called pleb you are referring to was not fired by Sunderland but left on his own accord, the same pleb as you call him that took Sunderland from the bottom of the Championship to winning it in one season and kept them in the Premiership the following season with very limited resources. I think the pleb on here is you and a very much over sized one at that.

Hear this fella he hasn't a clue what's going on in football.
It's not Keano im on abt .I'll give you a clue he's favourite to take over the Ireland job take your time now he was also Sunderland manager .

I know it was only over a game for both players but which keeper stood out for you? I thought watching both games on TV, Kelleher looked the better keeper.

Definitely Kelleher. Was a lot more assured in his game. Made a cracking save towards the end. Baz’s kicking wasn’t great on Tuesday night. He wasn’t really tested that much either tbf. I think Kellehers recent regular starts with Liverpool is proving invaluable and it shows on the international stage.

It looks like there's been serious talks again with Roy Keane for the Ireland job. He is now the lead contender for the job and there are talks that John O' Shea will fall in as his assistant.

If that's the case the FAI should cash in and offer Netflix chance to do fly on the wall documentary on it!!

The headlines of him being in pole position for the job appear to a bit click baity when you read the reports. It says he spoke to the FAI at some point, but there's nothing in there to indicate it was recent.

On the Stick To Football show a month or two back, he did allude to speaking to someone about a job recently, but mentioned something along the lines of there being a lack of respect. I can't remember the exact quote. It could have something to do with money. If he was to take the job now, he'd be earning less than he was paid to be the assistant manager a few years ago.

99% of the lads here want Keane, you need Keane because deep down Keane is in all of us. " The silent rage and Yearning to Rattle the cages". So pull up your Underpants and buckle up .

The latest murmerings from the FAI was that they had a candidate selected but couldn't announce until early April, due the existing contract constraints with the candidate in question. That would suggest Wily Sagnol or Gus Poyet most likely. Now all of a sudden Roy Keanes back in the frame as a leading candidate? Can't make head nor tail of that one, if they wanted Keane it could have been done months ago, although they were probably fixated on Carsley at that time. This is either pure media speculation, or there reacting to the feel good vibe with John O'Shea and retrofitting Keane into the equation as manger with the Interim set up as his back room team. Would the FAI just put us all out of our misery and make the appointment, so we can get on with the misery of following Ireland.

Finn Azaz: It was always Ireland. It’s always been a goal of mine to play for Ireland

Finn Azaz strolled into the Aviva Stadium mixed zone on Tuesday night as, at long last, a senior Ireland international.

Didn't realise he has such strong Cork connections. Grand uncle a dual player and All-Ireland winner with Cork. You sometimes can scoff at these English born players coming in but often forget they have strong ties to Ireland. He was absolutely delighted after the debut too which was great to see!

If this turns out to be true its fucking hilarious from a point of view of the shitshow of the FAI.........just pull off the band aid and either give it to Keano for the box office, or appoint O'Shea.
